Hi angel friends :) some heart-writings, feelings, emotions, sharings :) We're so happy, thankful, and blessed to have DS in our lives :) the past week, or two, we've been monitoring very closely, all of the news, updates, and things going on in our country, and around the world, with the outbreak of the coronavirus. We've all been banding together, keeping strong, in these times, keeping informed, and taking time to emotionally breathe, as best we can, with all that's been going on. it's like, a different world right now. so much happened in the past week. we understand,and know, that for anyone, it can be a lot to take in, and to be able to emotionally prepare for all that's going on. Life is very different right now, and us all, being more cautious, aware, and taking measurements, and precautions, just incase. We've been educating ourselves, about the coronavirus, and how to take precautions, being prepared. in recent days, going prepping/shopping, it truly has been a whole new experience for us. we've had times where we stocked up on foods, water, supplies before, for hurricanes, winterstorms, but this time it's felt very different, in words, i'd describe as a more sense of urgency more. We hope everyone has everything they need. We've been feeling very thankful, that we've been able to keep in close contact, with eachother, and with friends all around the states, and around the world. it helps so much to be able to keep in touch, and to also have moments of normalcy :) i mentioned to my mom, Holly, friends, that going to dunkins yesterday, and getting drinks, and even at the dollar tree, buying some gifts, and treasures, those moments, truly are treasurable, and can bring such a peaceful comfort :)
Last night, Holly and i watched a comedy movie, and it was so nice, to be able to kinda de-news, and to have that normalcy and comfort of watching a comdy movie :) it's things like that, that will help us all keep balanced, and will help us not to worry, and panic. it's good to be prepared, stocked up, and to have the essentials items you need, and it's so very important to keep strong, and surrounded by love, care, and support :) we know the world is feeling very different right now. i mentioned to my family and friends, it's like a movie, or show, we've never seen anything like this before. my mom mentioned, in all her years, this is first time she's seen anything like this, with all of the closings, cancellations, schools closed like this around the country, world, and our public utilities closing, and the worker at our city hall, mentioning to my mom, to take extra envelope for payment, just incase they close. these are times, and situations, we've never seen, and encountered before. keeping in tune with family and friends, is helping a lot, and giving us all strength, and hope :)
my family Holly, and i, are doing ok during these current times. it's like whole new times going on right now, that's very different. i find lots of comfort in my family, friends, and writing :) writing helps a lot :) keeping safe, taking good care, and updated on the latest news. We've been thinking a lot about family, friends, reaching out to friends across the miles :) 2 of our friends, one from Canada and 1 from Australia, reached out to us, and it's such a comfort, to be in contact :) i'm planning on mailing out some cards, letters, notes, this upcoming super wednesday :) i love to get those notes and cards out to friends, to touch base, and to comfort, and to let friends know, my family, Holly and i are here, and we're here for you all :) Your friendships means the world to us :)
i think we all are doing really well with our handling of everything :) it's been absolutely surreal. usually when there's news, it's a main focus news, but to have so many different updates, news, going on, it truly can feel like a whirlwind. our spirits are good, and keeping positive, and we're hoping, and praying for the very best, that this virus stops spreading, and that our lives, and days, and the world, will return to normal again, once all is safe :) we want everyone who needs healing, to have full healing recoveres, and we want everyone to be healthy, safe, and to make it through these times, and have so much more to look forward too sharing :) i'm a spirit writer, from my heart, and spirit, and even during these big times, world changes, going on right now, i want to continue to always write with all of my heart, and spirit, no matter what kind of day it is, whether it's a good day, a bad day, rough day, or a sweet day :) keeping with some daily routines, traditions, is very helpful :) as long as i have family, friends, and writing, it's all i need to get through each day :) family, friends, and writing :) Thank you all, for letting me share my thoughts, feelings, heart emotions, here in my journals :) this is very theraputic for me :) DS, and my journals, has always been theraputic for me :) We all need to take good care, of ourselves, and eachother, during these times :) being gentle to ourselves, and helping eachother the best we can :) We all can and will, make it through these times :)
We're enjoying a nice day, and weekend :) my family, Holly, and i are doing well, and enjoying a nice day, celebrating Bristol's 1st birthday :) we love special times, like this :) birthday's, and spring season on it's way :) we're holding close to our hearts, seasonal traditions :) Holly and i are going to watch the new episode of TWD tonight :)We've been really into the 10th season :) This upcoming week, i look forward to doing some writing, nature walks, we also want to keep with all of our traditions of the week, with sweet treats tuesday, our super wednesday post office adventure, and lots more, leading us into another super fun baking friday adventure, and blossoming into my birthdsay weekend next weekend :) i look forward to all of my writings, sharings, adventures, and pictures, all throughout the week :) Thank you angel friends, so very much, for all that you do for us, and for the very special heart warming comfort and peace you all bring our hearts :) we deeply appreciate everything, with all of the love of our hearts :) big group warm caring happy sunny sunflower friendship hug :) There's many more special times, and great things to look forward too, with family, friends, nature, and the wonderful spirit of the season :)

Happy 1st birthday, Bristol! oh boy the cake looks so neat and she looks like she is having fun!
Hi Chris and Holly So glad that you all had a great time at the party yesterday. It is so cool that you and your brother had some interaction. little Bristol is sure a little cutie. Everyone in the pictures looks like they are having a great time. I love how your family celebrates all the birthdays.
Things in Pennsylvania are pretty much the same as everywhere else. The schools are all closed until the end of the month starting today. The store shelves are empty of major items like bread, toilet paper, hand sanitizer, and bread. I tried to get a loaf of bread yesterday and there was none. That shocked me. Good thing my Mom taught me how to bake bread!!! I told John I would just get some yeast and bake bread today. Also the cereal aisle was empty as well. Dish soap was also in short supply but I was able to get a bottle. I have to admit I was a bit shocked by all the bare shelves. John and I are staying safe and only going to places we need to go to. A lot of the businesses in the area are closing down as well and having their workers work from home. All the restaurants and bars are closed for eating in but you can still order take out. Even our fast food restaurants are only drive through. I have never seen anything like this. The churches in the larger cities are closing as well and no longer having services. They are telling people over 65 to self-isolate. They have banned all gatherings over 50 people in the state. So Pennsylvania is taking a lot of precautions as I am sure CT is as well.
You and Holly have a great day and a wonderful week. Hugs to you both and thanks for being a part of our lives and sharing your thoughts with us. hugs--John Debbie and Allie
